Google provides students a way to create, edit and share their writing. (Google Docs can be used in many different ways, and this is just one of the many ways!)
First:
Teachers will create a Google Doc with the prompt.
1. Go to www.google.com
2. In the upper right hand corner, click the Blue Sign In button.
3. Use your CMCSS Google account information to sign in.
See your Technology Integration Coach for additional details.
4. Once you are signed in, go to the waffle and select Drive.
5. Click the Red New button on the left-hand side. Scroll down and select Google Docs.
6. Your new Untitled Document has been created and opened. In the upper right hand corner, click on Untitled Document to give your document a name. Otherwise you might end up with 15 untitled documents!
7. Remember, Google Docs save automatically!
8. Prompts can be entered directly into the document or added via a link.
Next:
Once you have created your document, you are ready to share it with your students. Again, there are so many different ways this can be accomplished. Teachers can use Google Classroom to share and assign. (For additional details, talk with your tech coach or attend our Google Apps for Education inservice.)
Another way to share a document with your students is to use the share link.
1. Click the Blue Share button in the upper right hand corner.
2. In the Share with others box, click the Get shareable link.
You can invite each student with their CMCSS Google account. (Remember, the sharing permissions. The default is Can edit.)
3. In the Link Sharing box, select the permission that best fits your needs. Don't forget, More has additional options.
4. Copy the link and share it on your website for your students to access.
